Description

Made with frozen cherries instead of canned cherry pie filling, this delicious cherry cobbler is insanely easy to make in your slow cooker.

Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) package frozen pitted cherries
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup white sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/3 cup 2% milk

Directions

1 Combine cherries, 2 tablespoons sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and almond extract in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally and crushing cherries with a spoon, for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a slow cooker.
2 Whisk flour, baking powder, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Cream 3/4 cup sugar and butter together in a separate, large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in milk. Mix in flour mixture just until incorporated. Add to the slow cooker.
3 Cook on Low for 4 hours or on High for 2 hours.
